There was a shakeup at the top of the AFC West as the Kansas City Chiefs’ offense was shut down in Seattle while the Denver Broncos took full advantage of their road trip to Arizona. The Las Vegas Raiders, meanwhile, missed a chance to climb back to .500 at home against the Los Angeles Rams.

Chiefs’ offense goes quiet in Seattle

The Kansas City Chiefs (5-1) suffered their first loss of the season in a 20-3 defeat to the Seattle Seahawks. In the Sunday Night Football matchup, Kansas City managed only a single field goal, tightening the race at the top of the division. CBS Sports coverage surrounding this game largely focused on betting markets and promotional offers tied to the Week 7 primetime showdown.

Broncos close the gap, Raiders slip back

Behind them, the Denver Broncos (5-2) took care of business with a 30-16 road win over the Arizona Cardinals. Denver still trails Kansas City on winning percentage but has moved right onto the Chiefs’ heels after seven games, reinforcing the Broncos’ strong start to the season.

The Las Vegas Raiders (3-4) let an opportunity slip away, falling 35-21 to the Los Angeles Rams. CBS Sports had framed this matchup as a critical game for both sides while highlighting betting markets linked to the Week 7 contest. The loss keeps the Raiders under .500 and a step behind the Broncos-Chiefs duo in the AFC West race.

Chargers idle at the bottom

The Los Angeles Chargers (0-6) were not in action, remaining the only winless team in the AFC West. As Kansas City and Denver battle for first place and Las Vegas tries to stay within range, the Chargers continue to sit well back in the divisional picture with no movement over the past 24 hours.
